ManageEngine® Applications Manager Database Servers | ||
Database servers are robust, enterprise-class database management system. Applications Manager provides Database Server monitoring that monitors database resources. This database server monitoring involves connecting to the database resource, collecting data, and representing its attribute details as graphs.
The following are the different Database servers supported by Applications Manager:
Note: In the MySQL database (that you are trying to monitor), ensure that the user name assigned to Applications Manager has the permission to access the MySQL database from the host where Applications Manager is running. Else, give a relevant user who has the privileges to do the same.
Minimum User Privileges : The user should have privileges to execute SELECT, SHOW DATABASES, REPLICATION commands in the MySQL server. Also, Applications Manager machine should be allowed to access the MySQL database server.
For enabling the privileges, execute the below commands in the remote MySQL Server
INSERT INTO user (Host,User) VALUES('<host>','<user>');
(Host -> Applications Manager machine) /

To create a MySQL database server Monitor, follow the given steps:
Click on New Monitor link.
Select MySQL DB Server.
Enter the IP Address or hostname of the host.
Enter the SubNetMask of the network.
Enter the port number in which MySQL is running.
Enter the polling interval time in minutes.
If you are adding a new monitor from an Admin Server, select a Managed Server.
Provide the user name and password of user who has permission to access the MySQL database.
Specify the database name. Please note that the Database name must be valid. Also, the database name is associated with the user name. Hence, provide the database name corresponding to the user name given in the above field.
Choose the Monitor Group from the combo box with which you want to associate MySQL database server Monitor (optional). You can choose multiple groups to associate your monitor.
Click Add Monitor(s). This discovers MySQL database server from the network and starts monitoring them.
